Anything built with screws is meant to be disassembled.

This is a very cool build but two things I would have changed are:

1. Get an HX PSU since it has blue on it, unless you could only get those extensions or custom sleeves for that PSU.

2. Get custom LED's and only put lights on the points, and one strip of LED's on the end so the lighting goes through it no problem.

 

Great build man.

Impressive work!! Especially with the mid panel. I also used to have a "Project Cobalt" build as well but it doesn't exist anymore, lol.
